The Fred Olsen Braemar invites her passengers to sail onboard and experience traditional-style cruising with a friendly atmosphere.
Braemar is a typical Fred. Olsen cruise ship weighing 19,089 tonnes, offering an intimate and classic cruising experience. The ship has huge expansive windows, good-sized terraces, and with large open decks and a glass-walled atrium stretching elegantly over five decks, there’s no doubt that this beautiful ship has been designed to perfection.
Fred. Olsen cruises offer a unique range of friendly and intimate cruise experiences where passengers are encouraged to engage and interact with each other. This helps to create the tight-knit, family atmosphere that Fred. Olsen cruises are known for.
Braemar travels the globe on Caribbean Cruises and Mediterranean Cruises as well as taking in the Latin flavour of South America.
Menus onboard Fred Olsen’s Braemar are prepared to a high standard by award-winning chefs, and food is served by staff who are friendly and attentive. The main dining lounge, The Thistle restaurant, provides a traditional dining experience in an atmosphere enhanced by large windows and sea views. In addition to the exquisite food there’s an extensive wine list which helps to compliment and complete your meals perfectly. Other less formal dining options are also available onboard Braemar including the Palms Café, with carved mural décor, and the Coral Club with its sublimely comfortable tub chairs.
As you watch fabulous sunsets, Braemar turns her attention to the evening schedule of attractions and entertainment. The Neptune Lounge transforms and a shimmering backdrop gives the stage a certain glamour. The Coral Club is the perfect venue for classical music and dancing. Alternatively, for a truly magical experience, take your Foxtrot or Salsa outside and dance the night away under the stars on the Sculptured Terrace.

Through the Youth Program, staff are trained to help younger cruisers harness their enthusiasm for all things fun, giving the little ones - and the slightly less-little ones - a chance to meet future friends while having an age-appropriate, supervised blast in Carnival Breeze's multiple youth spaces. Activities, special teen-only shore excursions, movie nights and more round out the experience that they won't forget.
There are plenty of facilities onboard Braemar to help you while away your free time on the ship. From shops stocking a wide variety of goods including stylish fashion labels and high-end perfumes to a well-stocked library where passengers can relax in comfortable mahogany chairs and catch up on some reading, there’s an activity for every mood and interest.
Fred. Olsen also offer a comprehensive array of themed cruises, which allow passengers to combine their hobbies or interests with amazing cruise experiences. Some of the most popular themes are food and wine, featuring professional lecturers ready to impart their knowledge onto guests.
Onboard Braemar there is a fully-equipped fitness centre with weights, resistance machines and a large dance studio that plays host to group sessions. The range of fitness and activities allow you to keep up with your healthy lifestyle while onboard or pick up a new fitness regime. The sauna and solarium provide the perfect opportunity to wind down, relax and recharge your batteries, leaving you refreshed and looking your best to enjoy your cruise holiday. Additional facilities include the sun-drenched deck swimming pool and luxurious Jacuzzi.
Enjoyable Mystery Cruise with friends. Aviles, very average, Bordeaux, interesting. Falmouth Beautiful weather, greeted by the Mayor, port laid on coutesy bus to Maritime Museum, then enjoyed the quaint streets and harbour.
We felt the journey to Avila’s was too far for just a day especially as it was a Bank Holiday there and everywhere was shut! The entertainment on the ship was very poor nothing to do while at sea days. The beds were too hard and we had bad back aches. On the plus side the food was very good and the staff very pleasant.
Just what I expected
